    Harvard Study Proves Apple Slows Down old iPhones to Sell Millions of New Models

    • wow, no way. I can't believe companies do thisGnash
    • maybe that's why my new washing machine and dish-washer only lasted 3 yearsGnash
    • hmmm, and they were samsung...Gnash
    • innovation never...utopian
    • I'm convinced Apple trashed our iPhone6s a few days before 7 came out. They worked brilliantly then out of no where both ours stopped workingkona
    • with the same issues. touch sensitivity seemed to be off and out of sync with the buttons. random and frequent crashing and freezing.kona
    • i kept both phones so the boys could use them and guess what, a few months later they work perfectly again. can't wait for the iphone 8!!! :)kona
    • FUCK YOU APPLE!utopian
    • why would they trash your iPhone 6 last year but leave literally millions unfazed?monospaced
    • Once a new model comes out, don't update kidsset
    • Not just Apple though. Same thing has happened with my Sonyset
    • The key is to stick with the os that comes with the phone and to never upgrade. I've had my iphone5 running os7 for years without any issue.hans_glib
    • Of course the payoff is incompatibility with new apps and web pages displaying horribly but I can live with that. This phone does all I need, tho I'm hopinghans_glib
    • ...the se will take a price hit soonhans_glib
    • God I love how mono never fails to jump to defend every Apple critique...waiting for the Ive hair photo to have a comment too...soon!formed

    • I'm not defending Apple. Just saying that I also have an iPhone 6, and it didn't suddenly slow down. It's actual experience, dick.monospaced
    • The dick experienceset
    • lolmonospaced
    • I'm not one for conspiracy theories but god damn if you fuckers aren't totally right. Never had an issue until this week now it's slow unresponsive and crashes_niko
    • Far harder to believe that they wouldn't do this, in my opinion.set
    • Fake news: http://www.snopes.co…
      although I was also victim of phone being turned to shit on iOS update years ago

    • I wonder what dopey Apple fanboys downvoted this post?utopian
    • maybe just the ones who know it's a fake storyGnash
    • Take story or not, in my personal experience this is very much a realityset
    • I was just pointing this out to my husband the other day. At least now I don't feel like a crazy conspiracy lady rocking a tin foil hat.mapleT
